Beaufort Gazette, 1920: Randolph Murdaugh Sr., candidate for solicitor of the 14th judicial district
The Murdaugh family (/ˈmɜːrdɒk/MUR-dok) is an American family from the Lowcountry region of South Carolina. Three generations named Randolph Murdaugh served consecutively as circuit solicitor (the elected prosecuting attorney) for the state's 14th judicial district between 1920 and 2006. The family's prestige and long reign led locals to call the five-county district "Murdaugh Country". In addition to the legal positions, in 1910 Randolph Murdaugh Sr. established the Murdaugh family law firm, now called the Parker Law Group which specializes in personal injury litigation.
A fourth generation son, Richard Alexander "Alex" Murdaugh, an affluent lawyer at the family firm and prominent member of the community, secretly led a life of crime that included rampant fraud, corruption, embezzlement, theft and drug infractions, spanning decades and involving dozens of victims, many who were disadvantaged. The crimes culminated in 2021 when Alex brutally murdered his wife and son using multiple guns at close range. The investigation, denials, recriminations and trial captured national attention for years. In the 2023 trial of Alex Murdaugh, he was found guilty and sentenced to two consecutive life sentences in prison without the possibility of parole. The case generated extensive media coverage, films and books.
